Snoop Dogg has never kept his penchant for smoking marijuana a secret and today that got him in a little bit of trouble. Customs officers in Norway detained Snoop when they discovered that he was carrying marijuana on him. Snoop was caught with eight grams of marijuana on him.
However, in Norway, possession of marijuana in an amount less than 15 grams is only punishable by a fine. Norwegian officials ended up fining Snoop $12,000 Krone or $1980.13, which the rapper paid right on the spot. Snoop was also cited for having an amount of cash on him that exceeded the legal limit. That offense brought his fine up to a total of $8,600.
Snoop Dogg is in Norway to perform at the Hove Festival.
